A working fireplace is a great joy. Whether it is crackling with logs or a glowing gas fire, it creates an atmosphere that is both inviting and evocative.
Fireplace fenders serve an essential function if you are to safely enjoy the pleasure of an open fire. Fire fenders are the perfect tool to ensure that any rolling logs or fuel can’t leave the hearth, keeping the fire safely contained and your floor safe from damage! Fire Fenders were also made to be beautiful, as they sit within the main focal point of a room. Brass fenders suit a period interior well and are best paired with other brass fire accessories. Brass fireplace fenders were very popular in the Victorian era and were often pierced and finely engraved with floral motifs. In the Georgian era, steel fenders were popular and neoclassical in style. Unlike the Victorian fireplace fenders they were simpler and more delicate in design.
We have a large collection of antique fire fenders for sale so please do enjoy browsing this page or contact us with any specific requirements.
